Button Polish is a solution of unbleached shellac, dispersed in a fast drying alcohol carrier (Methylated Spirits), it produces a slightly warmer patina and gives a lighter colour on timbers such as oak, as opposed to the more traditional browns produced with French Polish.
A shellac wood polish with a variety of uses, from finishing antiques and reproduction furniture, to acting as a barrier between two normally incompatible finishes. Produces a warm, dark transparent film, with a unique appearance that cannot be recreated with modern lacquers and finishing techniques.
